We study accommodation of an excess charge carrier on long even-N polyynic oligomers C(N)H(2) due to displacements of the underlying carbon lattice and polarization of the surrounding solvent in the context of carrier self-localization into a polaronic state. Spatial patterns of bond-length alternation, excess charge and spin densities are compared as derived with Hartree-Fock and two hybrid de...

We present an experimental and theoretical study of the carrier-envelope phase effects on population transfer between two bound atomic states interacting with intense ultrashort pulses. Radio frequency pulses are used to transfer population among the ground state hyperfine levels in rubidium atoms. These pulses are only a few cycles in duration and have Rabi frequencies of the order of the carr...

Nanomaterial-based carrier systems hold great promise to deliver therapies with increased efficacy and reduced side effects. While the state-of-the-art carrier system is a sphere, recent data indicate that elongated rods and filaments have advantageous flow and margination properties, resulting in enhanced vascular targeting and tumor homing. Here, we report on the distinct diffusion rates of t...

In this paper, we propose a joint carrier frequency synchronization and channel estimation algorithm for multipleinput and multiple-output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) systems. A major challenge to MIMO-OFDM systems is how to obtain the channel state information accurately and promptly for coherent detection of information symbols and channel synchronization. MIMOOFDM ...

A genetic analysis of the presence of HBsAg in a population of which 7.2% of the members were positive is presented. Though the ratios of carriers: non-carriers were generally in good agreement with expectation if the carrier state were determined by homozygosity for a single recessive gene, the two examples of mating most critical to a test of the hypothesis, carrier X carrier, yielded 2 norma...

using the computational methods, the interaction effect of tyrosine amino acid on graphene wasinvestigated. for this purpose, the density functional theory (dft) in the ground state of 6-31gwas used, and the interaction effects of tyrosine on graphene was investigated through attachmentto three different base positions. different parameters such as energy levels, the amount ofchemical shift in ...

We have developed a simple model for the carrier capture and escape processes in quantum-well ~QW! lasers, which yields an analytical expression for the ratio of the carrier capture and escape times. It predicts a decrease in the escape time with injected carrier density due to the state filling effect. It also shows an exponential dependence of the escape time on the effective barrier height a...

Carrier multiplication in nanostructures promises great improvements in a number of widely used technologies, among others photodetectors and solar cells. The decade since its discovery was ridden with fierce discussions about its true existence, magnitude, and mechanism. Here, we introduce a novel, purely spectroscopic approach for investigation of carrier multiplication in nanocrystals. Apply...
